gutzy Organic, known for its fruit and vegetable snacks in portable pouches, launched prebiotic protein smoothies to meet the increasing demand for on-the-go protein and gut-friendly snacking options. Each pouch contains seven grams of plant protein, plus seven to eight grams of fiber for a nutrient-dense, calorie-friendly way for active people to refuel on the go.
These snacks for enhanced energy, digestion and overall wellness are a source of plant-powered protein and prebiotic fiber in varieties like Cherry Berry Acai and Tropical Mango featuring guava, and passion fruit. These grab-and-go smoothies are free from added sugars, artificial additives and preservatives.
Unlike other snacks, gutzy's pouches are the only adult snack found in the produce department, and they can be found on the refrigerated shelf in proximity to fresh-cut fruit.
